Coming from V2 I could tell that these V3 are not the same dimensions. They are a tad bit wider and a little longer. These are a no go for me to run or workout but still a great show for everyday wear (non athletic usage).

My problem was with the durability of the tip of the toe, the bottom of which wore through the sole. Otherwise they fit well and were highly satisfactory.

none; I have a wide foot.

The fit was fine but the insole never did stay put.

Because of the brace I now must wear I need a flexible shoe with a stiffer heel.

Cool looking, but cushion in front of shoe wore your toes out during a walk

Unfortunately my son loves the feel and fit of these shoes. I say unfortunately because they don’t hold up very well.

Very tight and hard to get on versus same size NB shoes I bought at the same time. Toes feel cramped.

These are good shoes, my second pair. They're lightweight and have minimal padding on the tongue and collar, which is great. But they're better for walking, knocking around than for running. Too much heel lift for running. One problem I'm having with this pair is that the insoles are not attached and slide back, out of place after I walk a block or two. Very annoying. Will need to glue them in or return.

These are probably the least supportive/comfy new balances I've ever purchased..but at the same time, are also the least expensive ones. with that in mind, I LOVE the look, toes are comfy, and will just get good inserts...problem solved.

Have always lived the Fresh Foam line Of shoes from New Balance, size has always been consistent, however, this latest pair fits smaller than usuals. Same great show, will order from NB again.

These are an improvement over previous versions but the toe box seems odd.

These look great but they just don't feel quite as well made as I would expect from New Balance. The sole is thinner than an actual running shoe, which I would expect. But they also seemed to do away with most of the arch support. They are also very hot and the insole on one of my shoes slides back throughout the day, leaving a gap under my toes. I'm going to see if some after-market insoles help. Won't be purchasing another pair of this model.

the width was 4E but did not feel like that width. The only saving grace was the stretch material allowed my foot to fit OK, not perfectly. If this model was in a leather shoe fit would be very tight.

Narrower than the Fresh Foam series used to be, had to size up a width. Limited cushioning. Overall seem to be much more cheaply manufactured shoes than this line used to be - my 2017 NB Fuel Cores still feel better than this.

It’s a shame New Balance was the go to for wide shoes, no longer. A extra wide that I can barely fit my foot in, especially the instep area. Good looking shoe that I had high hopes for, I don’t know how much material they save by making them smaller. I have been desperately looking for shoes that fit, models from the past no longer fit with new editions. Hat’s off to Zappos for having a great return policy.

Weird arch support, left shoe has arch support in a different place than right shoe. I think all inexpensive (less than $200) shoes are designed and built with no standards deliberately to cripple US people.

The foot bed of this shoe was not like any other pair of New Balance Fresh Foam that I've owned. It felt like I was standing on the bare floor instead of inside the shoe.

although my shoes felt almost wide enough, they did not give enough support and cushion. I replaced the insole with a gel insole, they felt better.

Lightweight shoe for casual wear. Not for any athletic activity. Ordered the 2E but it feels like a standard width.
